FileMask used during Chart Export is not working

I am Exporting Chart data in a binary form using the following lines of code

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();

chart.FileMask = chart.FileMask | FileMask.Fonts;

chart.Export( FileFormat.Binary, ms );

I expect that this exports only 'Fonts' related data. But that is not what

happens.

When I import this saved data into a new chart using

newChart.Import(FileFormat.Binary, ms );

it imports all the data of the previous chart not just the font data.

What's going on.

If you want to export ONLY the Fonts data you would have to do something 

like

chart1.FileMask = FileMask.Fonts;

If you OR the current FileMask value you are esentially adding all the

existent FileMask bits and FileMask.Fonts.

Except that doesnt work either and ends up saving unexpected things. I did 

start with

chart1.FileMask = FileMask.Fonts;

since OR did mean the same thing to me, but that did not do the trick. So, I

went back to the documentation, that read

To save just colors and titles attributes:

[Visual Basic]

Chart1.FileMask = Chart1.FileMask Or FileMask.Colors Or FileMask.Titles

[C#]

chart1.FileMask = chart1.FileMask | FileMask.Colors | FileMask.Titles;

That lead me to using the other path which doesnt work either.

Please help me sort this out.
